A jail guard’s attempt to bring in drugs was shut down by the sheriff at the Lower Buckeye Jail in Phoenix, Arizona.

Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone said a detention officer was arrested for trying to smuggle meth and fentanyl into the Lower Buckeye Jail in Phoenix, Arizona.

Detention officer Andres Salazar faces several felony drug-related charges.

“This was an ongoing investigation,” Penzone said at a press conference on Jan. 11. “This detention officer was hired in October 2019, recently worked with inmates and some folks on the outside, and attempted to bring fentanyl and methamphetamine into the jail.”

“We have strong reason to believe this was his first attempt,” the sheriff said.

“This young man, whatever led him to make this decision, will now not only lose his career but most likely the future that he has for himself is definitely going to be hindered in an adverse way,” Penzone said.

    fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it
    has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up!

  4. Can I simply say what a relief to find an individual who actually understands what they are discussing on the
    web. You actually realize how to bring an issue to light and make it important.
    More and more people have to check this out and understand this
    side of the story. I was surprised that you’re not more popular given that
    you most certainly have the gift.
